- added numlock on boot switch
- simply add :
services.xserver.displayManager.sddm.autoNumlock = true;
to configuration.nix and sddm will start
with numlock enabled.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions
This reverts most of 89e983786a, as those references are sanitized now.
Fixes#10039, at least most of it.
The `sane` case wasn't fixed, as it calls a *function* in pkgs to get
the default value.
- if xserver.tty and/or display are set to null, then don't specify
them, or the -logfile argument in the xserverArgs
- For lightdm, we set default tty and display to null and we determine
those at runtime based on arguments passed. This is necessary because
we run multiple X servers so they can't all be on the same display
These options allow setting the start and stop scripts for the display
manager. Making these configurable is necessary to allow some hardware
configurations. Upstream ships empty scripts by default, anyway.
The most complex problems were from dealing with switches reverted in
the meantime (gcc5, gmp6, ncurses6).
It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
This seems to have been confusing people, using both xlibs and xorg, etc.
- Avoided renaming local (and different) xlibs binding in gcc*.
- Fixed cases where both xorg and xlibs were used.
Hopefully everything still works as before.
As discussed on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/9642, the option
is not necessary because all desktop managers already stopped handling
it (and delegated to systemd).
Or else users may see this unfriendly message:
error: cannot coerce null to a string, at .../nixos/modules/services/x11/display-managers/gdm.nix:107:49
Changes the option and explicitely sets it for each desktopManager.
Reasoning: Currently,
services.xserver.displayManager.desktopManagerHandlesLidAndPower is set
to true by default. This creates a problem for users without desktop
environments activated, since lid management simply doesn't work
(and they have to be lucky to find this option).
See issue #9671
